Facebook decided to make an interesting move in the end, so Messenger was launched for Oculus VR headsets, a company that is also owned by Facebook, so users of these devices will have the opportunity to use it from now on.
Facebook has created a special version of Messenger because it must be used with a virtual reality headset, users having the opportunity to write messages with this special interface, so communication with friends becomes much simpler.
Facebook has invested a lot of money in the Oculus platform, and now we see that it is starting to bring some of its very popular applications to this platform, which of course is great news for those who decide to enter the virtual world with a headset of this kind .
“We also want to bring people together and make it as easy as ever to join your friends and family in VR. This means it's easier for you to find your friends and family in VR. This week we're launching Messenger in VR, helping you communicate with the special people in your life – whether you want to compete in Beat Saber, meet up and watch a show at venues, or simply chat about what's on dinner without taking off your headphones.
This week, we'll start rolling out Messenger on Oculus for people who signed in to Quest and Quest 2 using their Facebook account. With this update, you can choose to chat with your Facebook friends wherever they have Messenger, even if they're not in VR. You can reach them without taking off your headset – and they can chat with you too. Write messages however you want, whether you type them in VR, select a pre-written conversation starter or use our voice-to-text feature. And if you're chatting with your friends on Messenger and decide you all want to play together, you can easily create an Oculus Party so you can jump in and play the same game together."
